The survivors of the beat were paUod aboard of the ship, and wo lay there waiting and watohing for the whale to show np again. He waa half a mito away at the next spent, and went down before wo oenld get to him. Ho then diaappearod for good, and we drifted aU day without sight of an- ether spent. Our poor lack and the loss of the boat hiereased the Captain's ill hnmor, and the mates, of coarse, took their ona from him and knocked the men about with free hand. The first mate, in whoso watoh I was, was parMcnlarly abusive toward a young sailor named Fleetwood, who wm not only homeelck, bat in poor health. At length, seising npan aeme slight pretext, the cffijor felled Fleetwood to the dook and then brutally kicked him. It was enough to make every man's blood boU, bnt a word on our part weald have been mnttay. When the yonng man got np, hb face smaarod with bleed and hb Umbo shaking under him, ho stoggored to the side, called good-by to OS, and went overboard before any onooonld rabo a hand to prevent. There waa a ory of horror, followed by a groan of dbmay from toe men, bat the mato tried to bluff it out by declaring that he was in no manner to blame, and that Fbetwood had boon in- snbordinato ever sinoo the voyage b^gaa. As we gatiiered forward, one old man wbla- perod that God weald surely punish the mato for hboraolty before that voyage waa ended. Next morning the Captain held aa biveatlgatlon, bat it waa a farce. Those of us who were called into the cabin wore talk- ed to. Instead of being permitted to toU onr stones, and it went down on the log book that Fleetwood jumped overboard rather toan do dnt^ and finish his rayago.

Daring toe flring a large nnmber of Indians creased to toe norto dde of toe stream and opened fire from that dl- rootion, but toey wasted toob bullets.

Oae of them was a corpord, and, aa aeon aa ho saw toe atctiatien, he ordered tho tqaad to make for the second grove.
